Andrew Grant | Dine Twice...An Author Relives Meal
Chicago has an incredible choice of outstanding places to eat, but where better
to celebrate the launch of your new book than the restaurant your hero first
visits after arriving in the city? Accordingly, last Monday Tasha (Alexander) and I jumped in a cab and
headed for Brasserie
Jo. TashaI set out to replicate
David Trevellyanβs dinner from the book - Mussels, and blue Steak with Mustard
Butter.
Like David, we enjoyed fabulous food, cooked to perfection in relaxed, elegant
surroundings. Unlike him, however, we didnβt have to fight off any unchivalrous
thugs in the (fictitious) courtyard at the back of the building, or evade the
consequent attentions of the Chicago Police Department. And more importantly,
unlike David, weβll have the pleasure of visiting the restaurant again...
DIE TWICE is thriller
author Andrew Grantβs
second book in the David Trevellyan series. He resides in Chicago and the
United Kingdom. Grant
is engaged to historic fiction author Tasha Alexander.

I have never been to Chicago but I've heard alot of good things about the City and I'm sure it is a great setting for your book. Die Twice sounds like a good read.

I love to try new restaurants. The meal mentioned here would never appeal to me, but I am sure I would find something on the menu I would like just as I am interesting in your book.

Chicago Deep Dish Pissa doesn't taste as good anywhere else!

It sounds like you had a fabulous time. The only thing that beats great food is a great book.

Never been to Chicago, but I'll keep it in mind for my first visit. LOL

I love Chicago! Sounds like a great book.

Unfortunately, I've only ever been traveling through Chicago, stopping only at the bus depot when I was 14. Much has changed since then; the traffic has certainly become much worse. Maybe one of these days I might actually be able to visit and see Chicago. But then, I guess I do prefer books to food. I definitely eat to live rather than live to eat. But a nice, flavorful meal can always be appreciated. I've read the first 3 of Tasha's books; I became interested in them on this very blog.

Unfortunately I am one of those types that if I read about a delish meal I'll pack a pound on!

This is a series I'll have to check out.
Always looking for new suspense
authors.

I thought once would do it, but Die Twice is an intriguing title that I would pick up.
